The new edition has a narrow focus in relation to the legal and valuation principles concerning rent review determinations and associated matters, but it contains valuable material relating to the interpretation of commercial and retail shop leases, nature of valuations, and the duties of valuers undertaking rent review valuations.

\n\nIt covers a complex and specialised subject, provides valuable assistance to lawyers and valuers who practise in the area, and teaching institutions which conduct courses in property and valuation law.
